Premierline Direct, the business insurance specialist, says it is helping small manufacturers in the fight against crime, with the launch of www.beatbusinesscrime.co.uk.
The website providing advice and interactive tools to help SMEs reduce their risk of becoming a victim of crime.
Highlight of the website is a risk assessment questionnaire, designed to help owners identify how susceptible their businesses are to criminal activity. It then offers information on how they can better protect their assets.
It also provides a platform for regional business communities to keep in touch about crime in their area, acting as an online business neighbourhood watch scheme.
This forum allows users to post a message about an incident so that their business neighbours can be on the alert.
